Join the Science Teachers Association of Texas

Building Community and Inspiring Discovery Since 1957

For more than 60 years, STAT has worked to build a vibrant community of science educators in Texas. As a member of STAT, you'll enjoy access to a variety of professional resources and benefits, including:

Access to presentation handouts from the Conference for the Advancement of Science Teaching (CAST)
Opportunities to apply for CAST attendee scholarships
Opportunities to apply for prestigious STAT statewide awards recognizing excellence in science education
Publications and news alerts on Texas science education
Advocacy before the State Board of Education and the Texas Legislature on science education issues

Most of all, you'll be joining a community of likeminded educators united by a passion for seeing and explaining the world through a scientific lens.

STAT offers two membership categories:

Our Regular membership ($30 annual dues) is for those educators who are still working in the field of science education, whether in a Pre-K through 12 setting as a classroom teacher or administrator, in a university environment or in an informal science setting.
Our Retired/Student Teacher membership ($10 annual dues) is for those educators who have retired from the classroom/active employment or for pre-service teachers.
